Chapter 19 Partial Control of the Demon King’s Dungeon
A while after entering the second Demon King’s dungeon, I noticed that the environment had changed compared to the morning .
“The Matangi don’t attack . ”
The Matango’s assault, which had emerged from walls and floors, had stopped . They appeared, but they did not show any hostility . Or rather, they are bowing to us .
“… What’s going on?”
“Oh, that’s because Chrono took the Contract seal that made the monster and used it . That power is activated . ”
I was told that it was a stone that controlled monsters . However,
“Can you use it just by taking it? What is a contract seal stone?”
“Nah, you can’t use it unless you show that you own it, and you need more control to own it in the first place . Only with a certain amount of power can you use the demon King’s legacy . ”
So, why the power of the contracted stone was activated, I picked up the stone that I kept in my pocket .
The stone was faintly wrapped in a familiar black light . Or rather, my chains were covering the stone .
“Um, this chain is wrapping around on its own . What is this?”
“The chain shows that Chrono is the owner . You have been recognized as the owner of the Demon King’s legacy . Congratulations!”
“No, congratulations . What would happen if I wasn’t recognized as the owner?”
“In that case, it just doesn’t work . This time, the effect has been demonstrated, the control of the monster has shifted to you . Oh, but just because you own it does not make this a contract, the monster cannot be manipulated just because it does not attack . Be careful there . ”
So that’s it . I don’t know much about this contract and its detailed uses, but I’ve found that this demon king’s legacy can also be used to avoid monsters .
…… Unlike the gatekeeper, Matango would come out again even if you defeat it, it was a little troublesome .
It would be a great help if you could safely move inside the dungeon without having to manipulate it .
“Then, do you want to walk looking for Salamado san?”
“Yes, let’s do it . I think if we find a door with open signs and go in, we’ll catch up . ”
The dominator’s guide states the rules, one of them is that should keep the door open when infiltrating the dungeon . This is to make it easier for people who come later to know where you are .
So, this time, I will follow the opened doors .

“Well, we’re going to go in . Sophia could you tell me if you hear something unusual on the way . ”
“Yes, I understand . I’m going to go with the full hearing of vampires . ”
Vampires have the highest level of hearing among demons . With her, you’ll never miss a voice . With that in mind, we move through the dungeon steadily while the Matangi crawled around .
Or rather, the effect of this contract seal stone was amazing .
There was no sign that the Matangi would attack even if we went down to the second or third level . Thanks to that, we came down to the fourth level without stopping .
“Wow, gatekeeper, you’re here too . ”
In one big passage on the fourth level, I stopped . The reason is that there were six gatekeepers in front of the door .
I brought a wooden stick, but it’s a bit painful and dangerous to deal with multiple enemies . I had to cooperate with Liza and Sofia to defeat them, but I’m sure they’ll be exhausted .
“Oh, it’s okay, Chrono . I think you’ll be able to pass by just holding up the contract stone . ”
Liza laughed and said so . I thought the stone would only control Matango, but apparently not .

…… I wonder if it’s true .
I raised the contract seal and went near the gatekeeper . And then…
“…”
The gatekeepers immediately knelt before me . That quiet, slightly intimidating sight made me a little nervous .
“Um … Liza . The power of this contracted seal, isn’t it too strong? It works for all the monsters in this dungeon . ”
“That’s right . It’s the Demon King’s legacy . It’s natural to have strong power!”
Liza says lightly .
I was not thinking that way because I had seen only the Demon King’s legacies that seemed to be useful in everyday life, such as the mattress where you could sleep well, and a wardrobe that contains endless clothes .
…… If you think about it, mother cores and other ridiculous things are also Legacies of the Demon Kings .
I’m aware of that now .
“The Demon King’s legacy is amazing . ”

“Ah, that’s right . I’m glad you understood that . Actually, it’s not just the power of the Demon King’s legacy . ”
“Eh?”
Liza looked at the contract seal stone and looked into my eyes .
“The reason the gatekeepers knelt was that you have the power to control the Demon King’s legacy, you usually don’t use it like this . ”
“Really?”
I don’t know because I’ve never seen other people use it .
“Yes . For example, if Professor Dante uses it, I think it will be hard to suppress a Matango . So, that’s the result of Chrono’s power . It’s a good idea to remember carefully . ”
“… I see . Well, I’ll remember it well . ”
“Okay . Heh, this activity is part of the lecture . I’m glad I was taught something new . ”
With a smile, Liza walked forward .
And, I also dived deeper into the dungeon with Sofia while feeling the power of the Legacy of the Demon King again .
